Need some input on tactic
sigurd2resen replied to sigurd2resen's topic in Tactics, Training & Strategies Discussion
No worries, my man! I'm just curious to pick your brain! Learning a lot. But it makes sense. AI is struggling to pick up the deep runs from DM - and I love it, hehe. Good ideas! Will try out! Do you think double AF's, or AF - PF(A), + AM(A) is overkill? Have worked most of the times, but that is three men constantly running into the box. Felt that the AMs was too close to the DMs when I had it on AP(S). Well, after adjusting my tactic to include some of your ideas - I ended up on a solid 3rd place in Bundesliga. Also in final of both Conference League and DFB Cup! Thank you for saving my tactic, dude! And also thanks, @Johnny Ace! -

Yes, of course. There is a lot of factors to consider in the early struggles. The reason for posting was just to get you guys to analyse my tactic, in case something could be changed for the better - which it totally did, much thanks to @Cloud9's thorough and well thought out suggestions. Now I'm competing for the last CL-spot, while being competitive in both domestic cup and Conference League! (with the help of some smart January-signings ) -

Wow, @Cloud9! Thanks for that thorough analysis. Really appreciate you taking your time - this is really helpful. I like your ideas, but I already played out the season (almost), and I used SV(S) -- DLP(d) -- SV(a) in the DM-slots. This worked wonders. I also used AM(A) in the AMC strata. Both my AM's have performed very well here. But you say that double SV´'s is exploiting the match engine? Well, this is something I've changed back and forth over the season, and he has been quite inconsistent in this role. My thought was to not have two STs doing the same thing. But the different traits will make them work differently anyways. Will change to AF and try out - thanks for the tip! -

Btw, did you mean SV and DM(D) in DM slots, for instance? And AP in CM slot? -

This is very helpful, as always @Cloud9! Definitely something I will experiment with. This is why I love this forum, thank you! -

Media prediction is 10th, and I'm actually 7th at the minute, but that is just pure luck. Played 11 matches so far. xG-table has me 15th, so I'm overperfoming. This can also be because I had a high turnover of players from first to second BL-season, and that teams around me are adapting to my tactics. Just wondering if you guys see some clear tactical adjustments I could try. -

Hi! In third season with FC St. Pauli at the moment, and struggling in Bundesliga. Was promoted in my first season, and probably was surfing on the "first season"-wave, and somehow made it into 5th place and EL in my first BL-season. Second year is much tougher, and I'm really struggling to make my tactic work, even struggling against what should be weaker sides. Any inputs on the tactic? PS: Playing FM22.

Have not quiteee decided on my style of play yet. Wanted to try something new, but I always tend to fall back on some variant of vertical tiki-taka. This formation is not really very suited for a pure counter-attacking style either. Right now I'm flying high in top spot in the Bundesliga 2 using the original TI's. Adjusted SS to AM(S) and using Mez(A) and Car(s) in midfield. Also adjusted the WB(a) to WB(s) on one side, as you said. Will wait and see for some in-game weeks. Might come back for questions. Thanks again!

Good day, fellow tacticians! I just started a new save with all football hipsters favorite, FC St. Pauli. I want to create a tactic and style which is defensive solid and with lethal counter-attacks, and the first matches is proving to do so. This is the first draft of the tactic, and I wanted to pick your guys' clever tactic-brains to further improve it. Thanks in advance! For info: - All three forwards are instructed to Roam from position. - Mez, HB and both WB´s are instructed to Shoot less often - Both CB's are instructed to Stay wider, to cover for adventurous fullbacks. Together with the HB dropping deep, they construct a back three when in attack. - This is the home version of the tactic. I tend to use PF(S) and/or WB(s) when in need of more control. - Have experimented with the Focus play through the middle TI, but I am not sure if this is proving any difference - what do you think?
